12 years ago today, our nation was forever changed. The actions of a few permanently affected the lives of millions. Today, we reflect on that day and the days, weeks, and months that followed. It’s a time to remember the heroes that emerged that day – the firefighters, police officers, EMTS, and thousands of other volunteers who helped with the search and rescue. Take some time out of your day to reflect on the thousands of innocent lives that were lost at the hands of others.

Also take some time to remember that freedom isn’t free. We are privileged enough to have our freedoms thanks to the brave men and women who protect our nation on a daily basis. This group of people includes all branches of the military, police officers, firefighters, EMTs, federal agents, and every other person who risks their own safety to protect the safety of others. American Warehouse Systems is extremely grateful for this elite group of people.
